Thought Provoking Shirt

Anna and I were out running errands today and a woman stopped, backed up and leaned into our isle and whispered to Anna; "I like your shirt!"

My head swiveled towards Anna as she replied in a surprised tone "Oh, thanks!"

What shirt did she have on today anyway, ran through my mind. Then I smiled as I read the message on the front of her shirt.

WOMEN DESERVE BETTER
THAN ABORTION

Later as we waited in line for our fries (medium size only and first taste of a fry in weeks!) I noticed another woman staring at Anna in a peculiar way, this time Anna was facing away from her. Already having forgotten the message t-shirt Anna was wearing I was a bit taken aback by the hostility on her face. I glanced back at Anna and there on her back of the t-shirt was the following.

ABORTION IS THE
ULTIMATE EXPLOITATION
OF WOMEN

Aha, clearly this woman did not care for Anna's choice of fashion. And possibly does not care for Anna's opinion about a woman's choice either. However, I love Anna's t-shirt and I think I might get one for me!

Wow, what an amazing witness your daughter is!

I saw a car in front of me at the gas station today with a pro life bumper sticker so I had to go tell her how much I liked it ;-)

My daughter who works for a prolife organization, Room at the Inn, (found on my side bar) gave her that shirt. I will ask her where she got it and post the information for anyone who might be interested in purchasing one.
